    Short Ride

     



    I was looking for some photos of my wiring and I stumbled across this. It was taken on the southern outskirts of Virginia Beach. The video is short because my cameraman lost her nerve when I hit second gear.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Heck Jack that is so cool and looks as if you had air under the front of the car until you hit second. Yes it is short but well worth keep as a memory and a laugh.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    There wasn't any air, but it will unload the left front wheel a bit. The sound of that motor made me a little homesick, though. I had forgotten how good it sounds after driving an 89 hp 1997 BMW 316i around Napoli.

    For those who don't know, every Americano who works here has a "Naples" car as a daily driver. Napolitani view driving as a contact sport. Lines on the highway mean nothing. Speed limits mean nothing. And, in five months here, I have never, and I mean NEVER, seen anyone stop at a stop sign.

    Vara, what'choo mean chicken? The ladybugs love my yellow car. They think it's a flower.
